Music helps

Tuesday, February 25, 2014

OK, this is a little ranting. Sometimes life is just so frustrating - there are things happening in my life TO ME that I have no control over. And yesterday was such a Monday. I'm literally buried in work, and a vendor I have to deal with gets snippy about something. Then traffic was backed up so I was late for Jazz Ensemble, and they didn't have the guitar music for our new song, so I got to sit there and be bored. After awhile I started playing along with the melody line, so at least I got some playing in.

And then this morning the scale didn't budge. That can be the most frustrating thing, and that's why this year I'm TRYING to focus more on strength and health and less on the scale. It's totally stupid that my mood for the day rests on that number. And it's also difficult at times to perk myself up, but I know it can be done. So I listened to some cool tunes on the way to work, and I feel better. I found this jazzy little tune on a CD a few weeks ago, and I'm going to figure it out. I started messing with it when I got home last night, and will likely be listening to it all day. Music definitely helps!
